Interactive JavaScript Demos in Firebug

http://youtube.com/v/vmaUW86RqbY

Giving lectures on code is pretty tedious for both students and staff and it occured to me that more interactivity is required. So I wondered if I could liven up my JavaScript lectures by using Firebug’s JavaScript console. As you can see from this quick “proof of concept” video that I [made with Screenr](http://screenr.com/juH), it might just work (and will require little extra effort on my part). I’ll blog again about how it went!

eLearning Technology, Cakes and coffee

Today I attended a pleasant hour at e-learning and cakes. Saw a demo of QR codes and Paper Show two technologies that have real potential (although I will have to think more about how to use the former than the latter). If nothing else, QR-codes may convince me to actually try the mobile internet!

(A nice side affect of using the mobile internet is that I might be able to use TwitPic to get my photos off my phone!)
